Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Gearing up for a new baby can be an overwhelming, expensive undertaking. "Baby Must-Haves" keeps it as simple (and affordable) as possible, presenting the collective expertise of the editors of "Parenting" magazine and hundreds of mums across the country. Organized according to product category, this full-colour, beautifully photographed portable reference gives the whole scoop on everything from nursery essentials and on-the-go gear to childproofing products and what-they-never-tell-you advice. Written with warmth and expertise, this guide offers not only where to find the best crib for your budget, but the best way to make it up (with an extra sheet in case of wee-hour nappy leaks!) to save time and make life with a baby easier, and more fun. Brand recommendations, hundreds of priceless tips, a "Skip, Save, or Splurge" feature, and photos throughout make this the must-have reference in the category. For over 20 years, "Parenting" magazine has been a must-have for all mums.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive and reality-tested! Great baby shower gift, August 14, 2007
By copperhead57 (Delafield WI) - See all my reviews
Someone just gave this to me.....It's a well-organized, comprehensive guide to what you need the first year. Very well written. I like that it tells you what you DON'T need to buy, as well as what you should splurge on. Lots of real-mom advice. It's more than a product guide--it tells you how to pick stuff out, what features are important, what brands are reliable, etc. I love Parenting Magazine--they've put together a terrific book.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Place to Start, September 16, 2007
By Nicole S. Donaghy "Real Estate Agent" (West Columbia, SC United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Since I'm pregnant with my first child, I was having a difficult time deciphering what we truly need for when the baby arrives. I found this book to be a good place to start, with explanations of various "baby equipment" that I didn't even know existed. Who knew babies need all this stuff? I also recommend using [...] to find more ratings on the items that are discussed in this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Maybe for First Time Parent, April 1, 2008
I am not a first-time mom, if I were I may have found this book more informative. I would stick to Consumer Reports Best Baby Products - then you will not only feel like you are making good choices but very responsible ones. I felt like Parenting's version was sometimes contradictory to what was safe and good for your baby. And don't get me wrong - I love Parenting magazine, but their book left me disappointed.
